Abstract
The effect of the base strip temperature on the bonding between base strip and overlay strips in a three-layer clad strip cast by a vertical-type tandem twin roll caster was investigated. The base strip was 3003 aluminum alloy and the overlay strip was 4045 aluminum alloy. The bonding was investigated for base strip temperatures ranging from 200 °C to 550 °C. The bonding condition was investigated by cold-rolling, bending-to-failure test and tensile shear test. The shear stress increased with the base strip temperature. Sound bonding was achieved at base strip temperatures higher than 450 °C. The results of this study indicated that the second caster is not required to be set below the first roll caster.
